Welcome to the commune podcast. My name is Jeff Krasno. Okay, so today's episode is close to my heart.

I speak with my better three quarters, Skyler, about the birth of our new project, Luminense. So Luminense

is a global series of summits focused specifically on women's health and longevity.

The first event will feature world-renowned female doctors and health experts, including

our dear friends, Dr. Sarah Godfrey, Dr. Casey Beans, Dr. Mindy Peltz, Marianne Williamson,

Jillian Michaels, Kayla Barnes, J.J. Virgin, Kimberly Snyder, and Dr. Robin Berzin.

My Sky Mama will be the hostess with the mustace, of course, holding it down as the MC.

This first event will take place in Los Angeles

at the legendary Saban Theater

on Saturday, February 1st, 2025.

And you can find out more information

at onecom slash shine.

Okay, in our conversation,

Skyler and I trace the roots of our common desire to bring people

together around well-being. We revisit the origin story of Kula, the yoga studio that Skyler founded

at Ground Zero in New York. Of course, we talk about wanderlust, our decade-long journey launching

the biggest wellness events in the world.

And we unpack the inspiration behind Commune, both the physical retreat center and the online course platform.

Behind all of these outward facing efforts and achievements, however, there was a lot of personal challenges and learnings.

We met when I was 17 and she was 18, and I've witnessed Skyler stumble from adolescence

into adulthood, bravely birth their three daughters, and glide into menopause as our girls

were entering puberty. I've watched her bounce between caring for our daughters and glide into menopause as our girls were entering puberty.
